Merab's Herd

[Bill & Ted]

And I think 2 black nails is enough!
I can’t imagine 3 black feet.
Good thing Ted is such a placid boy.
Hope all goes well for the dental trip

Aw thanks so much, we will be up early on Monday morning to get away for 4.15 am Ted always looks so put out when we wake him up and put him in his carrier Glad all your piggies are well and Pricilla is holding her weight x

 

[Betsy]

Black nails are scary Ted has three black feet, luckily he is an Angel compared to deva rainbow piggie Bill who screamed the house down

Meg has four feet of black nails! That is really scary! Luckily she is quite laid back having nail clips apart from her front left foot.

Yes same here with Jasper and all 4, then diva Luigi with his black back feet he insists on kicking me with the exact second I’m chopping!

So glad beautiful Phoebe’s doing well and gaining some weight @Merab's Slave

Sleepy Sunday morning

 

[Merab]

There’s nothing cuter than sleeping piggies.
I could spend so much time just watching

 

[Bill & Ted]

You are right, I can watch sleeping piggies all day, especially when they flutter their ears, it’s magical x

 

[VickiA]

I love watching them sleeping, occasional nose twitch and ear wiggle. Just adorable. I always wonder what they are dreaming of.

 

[Bradshaw Piggies]

What beautiful girls wish my boys would live as a herd... never going to happen!

Probably food and attacking the veg drawer of your fridge!

 

[Merab]

Phoebe’s ears were fluttering away this morning.
She probably does dream of food

 

[Merab]

Priscilla’s summer fur do is growing out.
We’re back to the “which end is which” stage

 

[Rivervixen]

In the second pigture I genuinely don’t know which end is which She’s beautiful bless her

 

[Merab]

When she’s in that position the only way to tell is the colour.
Her front end is black and white, her rear end is cream.

 

[VickiA]

Looks like the piggy hairdressers will be re-opening at the end of lockdown, then @Merab's Slave

 

[Merab]

A big new box to play in and chew up

Priscilla just sat and munched hay for well over an hour

My hay pile says Micah

 

[alpacasqueak]

Gorgeousness! Hope Phoebe’s doing well, and her weight too! ❤ x

 

[swaller]

Lovely to get to know all of - and all sides of - Merab's Herd. What gorgeous and blessed piggies.

Haha Micah is a sweet little one <3 Priscilla looks like such a Princess. And little peeky pig in the box <3

 

[Merab]

Thanks @alpacasqueak - Phoebe is doing really well. She’s at the lower end of her normal weight range now. She’s eating well, zooming and popcorning around the cage so it seems it was the teeth and they’re sorted.

@Kellykels the only time Micah is a sweet little thing is when he’s asleep!
He’s a very rambunctious boar with no manners, but very gorgeous.

Such a change from the pathetic little chap you rescued! All he needed was a lot of love and some girlies to keep him in his place.

 

[Merab]

True @Betsy .
You wouldn’t believe he’s the same piggy.
He needed piggy company and he’s such a happy boy now - even if he’s always at the centre of any chaos in the cage

 

[Merab]

Took the health check time today as an opportunity to tidy up the fur around Priscilla’s bum and give her a bit of grooming.

30 seconds later her nicely combed fur was everywhere after a good toss of the head!

All piggies in good shape.
Phoebe back to her normal weight now. I just wish I could lose weight as fast as she did and put it on as slowly.
All piggies happy in their nice clean cage

 

[Merab]

Priscilla would like to tell all her forum friends that despite rude comments from her slave about being a walking wig and not being able to tell which end is which, that she does have a very pretty face.

 

[Bill & Ted]

You are beautiful little lady Priscilla and not a walking pig wig

 

[Merab]

So chilled out. Priscilla was under the hide between them

 

[Merab]

Piggy spam after today’s cage clean.
I had to laugh this afternoon when I passed them. Micah had just lifted up the hay cake in his mouth and tossed it away - hitting Priscilla squarely on her bum!

 

[Merab]

I managed to pick up a carpet remnant for the hall so that I could open the cage and give the piggies some free ranging time.
The bunny play pen was placed to block them in.
It worked



The added bonus is that for me to get to the kitchen I had to climb over the bars so a bit of a work out for me too.

 

[Merab]

Finished this morning and came out of my study - glanced into the piggies’ room ........not a pig in sight - anywhere!
All 3 of them were hiding in their big new hay bag - Phoebe guarding the entrance to ensure no pig escaped.

 

[Merab]

Some furniture rearrangement needed.



Quite why a fleece tunnel had to be moved into the hides I do not know.
Piggies made a great deal of noise trying to squeeze past it into the hides!
